Biography
Kong Zhou was from Chenliu Commandery, and, while he was well-versed in philosophy, he lacked military leadership skills. During the 160s, he became a Reporting Officer in Chenliu Commandery, and, in 189, Emperor Xian of Han later appointed him to serve as Inspector of Yu Province at Dong Zhuo's behest. In 190, Kong Zhou turned against Dong Zhuo and joined a coalition of warlords opposed to his tyrannical rule. He died not long later that same year, and Yuan Shu appointed Sun Jian as the new Inspector of Yu Province.
